Whereas, people are sick and tired of their irritating co-workers, obnoxious cell phone users, ungrateful pets, overscheming dates, and the stranger who, because of a random accident of airline ticketing, sits down next to you and feels entitled to share every messy detail of his aunt Violet's eye-tag removal; And whereas, the authors, with their finely tuned legal minds, have always wondered why dry cleaning and ski rentals are already regulated via binding legal contract, while, mysteriously, your sex life is not; Now (Finally!), herein provided is a collection of twenty (20) binding contracts to regulate the boorishness and inconveniences of modern life, including: [section]1 Getting screwed when restaurant bills are split; [section]2 Sharing a bathroom with a roommate who leaves a million tiny underarm hair filaments in the sink; [section]3 Being forced to spend Thanksgiving weekend among toxic relatives, including the passive-aggressive gloating sister-in-law with her Mensa-certified toddlers.
